"No one can take it away?" Many people revealed a puzzled expression. The Da Qi Kingdom was a super power with many Saints guarding it. Could it be that even Saints could not take it away?
Qin Xuan looked at the axe. This axe should be a Saint Weapon as well, but when that senior used this axe to kill him, even his soul was fused with the axe.
Therefore, the most important thing to take away this Demon Axe was to obtain the approval of that senior.
"This axe has a wisp of the ancestor's heroic soul within it. If it is not acknowledged by that ancestor, then even if it is a saint, it can only barely use this axe and cannot display its true power."
Ji Wenyuan smiled and said, "If anyone here is interested in this axe, you can come forward and try to see if you can take it away."
"Third Prince is joking. If even Saints are unable to take away the devil weapon, how can we, the younger generation, take it away?" Someone said.
"What's done is done, if we don't try, how will we know if it's impossible?" Ji Wenyuan looked at the man and said, "Moreover, the Demon Axe is locked in chains and the will of the Devil Dao inside cannot break out. If any of you are not feeling well, you can leave in time, and there won't be any danger to your lives."
"You want to give it a try?" At this moment, a gentle voice entered Qin Xuan's ears.
Qin Xuan was stunned. He turned around and saw a figure that had unknowingly appeared beside him. When he saw that figure, his eyes revealed a hint of surprise. He whispered, "Why are you here?"
This figure was none other than Yan Qing, who was disguised as Yan Qingyun.
Although she left in a different direction than Qin Xuan, she still found this place according to the route they took in the Ancient Royal City.
"I just happened to pass by." Yan Qingyun said softly, as if she was just saying something very ordinary.
"Fine." Qin Xuan smiled bitterly. He obviously didn't believe that they just happened to pass by. However, in order to avoid embarrassment, it was better not to expose him.
"Are you interested in this magic axe?" Yan Qingyun turned to Qin Xuan and asked.
Those were a pair of extremely clean and beautiful eyes. Although Yan Qingyun was currently dressed as a man, her expression would not change. Just a glance at her eyes would cause people to deeply remember her, and they would never be able to forget her.
Seeming to have sensed that Qin Xuan was looking at her, a hint of panic flashed across Yan Qingyun's beautiful eyes. She quickly lowered her head and her cheeks flushed red. She seemed to be exceptionally enchanting.
"Cough, cough." Qin Xuan couldn't help but cough dryly as he saw this. He looked forward and said in a low voice, "Although this Demon Axe is good stuff, it isn't of much use to me."
Qin Xuan had cultivated in many different types of powers, but amongst these powers, the Sword Truth and the Spirit Demon Dao were the strongest. Devil Dao could only be considered as having a basic level of cultivation, furthermore, he already had a Heavenly Dragon Halberd in his hands, and was also a Holy-ranked Divine Weapon, not much weaker than the Demon Axe.
"Oh." She actually did not wish for Qin Xuan to retrieve the axe. With his talent, he might actually be able to take the axe away, and at that time, he would be the same as the senior, going to fight in the Devil Dao and die for his own cause. This was not what she wanted to see.
Although Qin Xuan might be able to control the Demon Axe, she still didn't want him to be in danger.
If Qin Xuan knew what Yan Qingyun was thinking at this moment, it was unknown how he would react.
Seeing that no one had any plans to make a move, a strange look appeared in his eyes. A few days ago, there was an abnormal movement from the axe, which was getting stronger and stronger every time. royal father even said that the ancestor sensed that someone was coming and wanted to take the axe away.
From the looks of it, royal father had guessed wrongly.
If the Demon Axe could be taken away, someone from the Great Qi Empire would have done so a long time ago. They wouldn't be here today.
"Since everyone has no intention to test out the axe, then I will take my leave." Ji Wenyuan spoke to the crowd and seemed to be preparing to leave this place. He had been waiting here the entire time and only explained his plan to them when he saw that there were a lot of people surrounding him.
"Wait!"
Just as Ji Wenyuan was about to leave, a hoarse voice came from the crowd, causing his steps to freeze in midair.
There was actually someone who dared to make a move?
Curiosity flashed across Ji Wenyuan's eyes as he looked towards a certain direction in the crowd. Soon after, his gaze locked onto a figure.
It was a young man wearing a blue robe, and looked to be around thirty years old. The Black Hair was draped over his shoulders, and it gave off a kind of cold feeling. He quietly stood there, and if he did not say those words just now, perhaps no one would have noticed him.
Qin Xuan took a glance at the young man and his pupils shrank. From this person's body, he felt a faint sense of familiarity, as if he had seen this person somewhere before.
Not only him, but Yan Qingyun also had a similar feeling when she saw the young man. They seemed to have met before, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him before.
The young man walked out from the crowd and looked calmly at Ji Wenyuan. "If I can take the axe away, will it belong to me?"
Ji Wenyuan's eyes froze for a moment, then he nodded, "You can say that, but, the demon axe is after all, the ancestor of the Da Qi Kingdom. Ji Wenyuan's eyes froze for a moment, then nodded," You can say that, but, the demon axe is after all, the ancestor of the Da Qi Empire.
Everyone slightly nodded after hearing Ji Wenyuan's words. This request was not excessive; they would have to pay a price for taking his item. Moreover, this was only a promise, if nothing happened in the Great Qi Empire, the axe would be given to him.
Since the Da Qi Kingdom was able to make such a decision, they were willing to give their all.
After all, this Demon Axe was an ancient item and its value was immeasurable. Even if no one in the Da Qi Kingdom used it, it would still be better than throwing it away.
"Alright, I agree." The young man did not hesitate and immediately agreed.
"This guy is that confident that he can take away the Demon Axe?" Many people looked at him doubtfully, but in their hearts, they didn't think much of him.
Ji Wenyuan stared at the young man. From the beginning till the end, there wasn't a single ripple in the young man's eyes. His straight body exuded a strong sense of confidence and no misgivings, as if as long as he made his move, the young man would definitely succeed.
What sort of pride was this?
Moreover, when Ji Wenyuan released his perception to sense that person's cultivation level, his heart suddenly shook. He discovered that he could not detect anything, which meant that that that person's strength was higher than his!
And now that he was at the Middle Rank of Monarch Stage, this person was at least at the peak of the Middle Rank of Monarch Stage, or maybe even higher!
"Please feel free to leave now that you are ready." Ji Wenyuan looked at the young man and said nothing more. It all depended on whether the young man was the person royal father was talking about.
He did not directly hold the handle, but extended his hand to caress the axe blade. Streams of black Devil Dao air flowed from the axe blade to his palm and then spread to his entire body, enveloping him within the demon qi, as if it was nibbling away at his body.
This scene caused the hearts of the crowd to palpitate with fear. This person had great courage. Was he not afraid at all?
"This person is Demonic Cultivator!" Qin Xuan stared closely at the figure in front of the axe. He realized that that person was absorbing the Devil Dao Qi without any resistance.
Gradually, the others also noticed this, and their faces revealed an expression of disbelief. Although that person looked cold and no one dared to approach him easily, he was no different from a normal person. Who would have thought that he was actually Demonic Cultivator?
"Demonic Cultivator?" A strange light flashed across Ji Wenyuan's eyes. It seemed that he had a higher chance of getting it!
This peerless devil weapon had been silent for countless years, but was it finally going to blossom into brilliance again?
"Senior, can you allow me to bring this axe away?" The blue-clothed youth suddenly said to the axe. This caused the crowd to have a strange expression on their faces. To speak to the axe?
Isn't it a little too naive to try and take it away?
However, in the next moment, the Demon Axe released an extremely dazzling demonic light, and the surrounding Devil Dao's Qi became even denser. They frantically rolled and roared, and their pressure was many times stronger than before.
A gust of wind swept past, it was as though a supreme Devil Dao phantom appeared around the Demon Axe. Its imposing presence caused the hearts of the crowd to pound incessantly, their eyes staring fixedly at the scene in front of them.
"He triggered the will of the ancestors in the demon axe!" Qin Xuan's expression could not help but change. He looked deeply at that person. He could actually do this? With just a sentence?
Or was it the stroke of the axe just now?
"Show me!"
A majestic and deep demonic voice resounded from the axe blade, as though it had penetrated through space and time. However, that voice was still incomparably majestic, unceasingly reverberating in the minds of the crowd, causing their souls to tremble.
If he wanted to take away the Demon Axe, he would first have to prove whether or not he had the strength to do so.
This was the request of the ancestor.
Hearing the voice coming from the axe, Ji Wenyuan's body suddenly trembled. His eyes were filled with deep shock. Was what royal father said really true?
royal father once said that there were people who triggered the thoughts of their ancestors. The ancestors wanted them to prove that they had the ability to take away the Demon Axe, but unfortunately, none of them were able to fulfil their ancestors' requirements and all failed.
And now, this person was actually able to communicate with the will of the Ancestor within the axe. Would he be able to surpass his predecessors and reach the requirements of the Ancestor?
